Day 9

Today I decided to make some Afghani food, obviously with the help of my mother, which consisted of rice with raisins and carrots, spiced up chicken cooked in the oven, along with salad. First I put a pot of hot water on the stove to let it boil, then poured the rice in a big bowl of water which cleans the rice. Shortly after, I put the bowl of rice inside a filter to clear out the water, and poured the rice in the boiling pot. I let it cook for about 10 minutes, and then put the pot of boiling water and rice in the filter to clear the water out once again. After rinsing it, i inserted the rice in an empty pot and let the rice cook, for 8 minutes, then my mother added some spices, and salt to it. After another 5 minutes, it was ready! The chicken was still in the oven, and I decided to make some salad and add some German dressing on it, which was absolutely tasty. In about 10 minutes, there was the masterpiece. I was never so proud of myself, and now I had leftovers to take for the following day at school!
